Slab detachment beneath eastern Anatolia: A possible cause for the formation of the North Anatolian fault

C Faccenna, O Bellier, J Martinod, C Piromallo… - Earth and Planetary …, 2006 - Elsevier
In this paper, we discuss the possibility that the North Anatolian fault (NAF) results from the
deep deformation of the slab beneath the Bitlis–Hellenic subduction zone. We described the …

Test of the frictional reactivation theory for faults and validity of fault-slip analysis

RJ Lisle, DC Srivastava - Geology, 2004 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The notion that slip on faults is controlled by the balance between resolved shear stress and
the magnitude of frictional resistance is examined in the light of the published orientations of …

Tectonic evolution of the Niksar and Tasova–Erbaa pull-apart basins, North Anatolian Fault Zone: their significance for the motion of the Anatolian block
